Digital Design and Innovation

Bachelor of Arts (B.A.)

About the Program

This program takes future designers on a journey that explores the look, feel and behavior to create positive experiences through technology. In the vast and fast-paced discipline of Digital Design & Innovation, the study program prepares students to work in the creative industry where they put the human, instead of the function, as the starting point of designing the interaction with technology. Design is based on an understanding of context, of peoples wishes, needs, motivations, and constraints. It explores how creative thinking can be utilized to design experiences in which technology plays a positive role. The program focuses on creating people centered experiences mediated through technology, in which aspects of aesthetics and form are crucial for any successful digital product, regardless if the interface is digital or physical.
